This is the first ever users' workshop for Open Babel, one of the most widely used cheminformatics toolkits. Open Babble presents a unique opportunity to learn how to make the most of Open Babel, whether you are interested in using for converting file formats, writing scripts to analyse molecular structures, or developing your own chemistry software.

The workshop will start on the afternoon of the 5th July, and finish on the evening of the 6th. By attending this workshop, you will learn:

How to speedup searching and filtering of molecular databases

How to get the most from the Open Babel GUI

What are the main classes and methods in the Open Babel library

How to use Python to write scripts that automate common tasks

How to write and compile a C++ program that uses Open Babel

How to create a new plugin for Open Babel

How to create a user-defined molecular fingerprint

How to combine Open Babel with other Open Source cheminformatics toolkits

What other software exists that uses Open Babel

Only 20 places are available at the workshop so apply now to attend. The registration fee will be €70 for academics, and €220 for industry attendees. This includes one lunch and dinner, but does not include accommodation.
